From Grateful Heart to Giving Hands: The Gratitude–Service Connection | Mindset Monday

What if gratitude isn’t just a feeling, but an energy that wants to move through you and become action? In this powerful Mindset Monday episode, host Naomi Banks closes out the November “Giving Back” series and the final show of the year by exploring how true gratitude naturally overflows into service. This is not about performative “I’m thankful” posts—it’s about becoming a living “thank you” with your life. Naomi guides you through a grounding heart-centered meditation, then unpacks: • How gratitude becomes generosity when we let it move, not just sit inside us • The difference between serving from guilt vs. serving from gratitude (and why one burns you out and the other fills you up) • Her personal journey from struggle to purpose to service—from adult industry stigma and shame to spiritual awakening, self-love, and advocacy • How her grandmother, her explant surgeon Dr. Sood, and BII advocate Laura Bowden shaped her calling and how she now honors them through her service • Why abundance mindset (“I get to give”) transforms how you show up for others • How joy, purpose, and healing deepen when you serve from your overflow, not your emptinessYou’ll also get practical reflection prompts and a “gratitude-to-action” practice: • Write down 10 people or experiences you’re grateful for • Choose one person to honor by serving someone else in their name • For every blessing, commit to one act of service—letting gratitude become motion, not just emotionNyomi reminds you that gratitude and service are two sides of the same coin: You are blessed, and you are a blessing. As this year’s “Rebirth” theme closes and next year’s “Reclaimed & Unashamed” begins, this episode invites you to carry a new truth into the next season: service isn’t meant to drain you—it’s meant to renew you. Listen in if you’re ready to let your grateful heart become giving hands.

The Power of Service and Community with Dr. Victoria Medeley: Vulnerability, Allyship & Self-Love

 In this powerful episode of The Season of Self-Love Podcast, host Nyomi Banks sits down with Dr. Victoria “Dr. V” Medvec—speaker, mental health advocate, organizational psychologist, and author of Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally—to explore how service, vulnerability, and allyship all connect back to self-love. Dr. V shares her deeply personal journey with mental illness, cancer, and alopecia—and how choosing to shave her head and “own” her baldness became an act of radical self-acceptance. She also talks about burning out in traditional workplaces, then creating a company that actually honors humanity, flexibility, and mental health. In This Episode, You’ll Hear About: • How living with invisible and visible challenges shaped Dr. V’s purpose • Her decision to shave her remaining hair and why she sees that as winning, not losing • What it means to build a workplace that doesn’t require people to sacrifice their well-being • The moment she pulled her wig off on stage during a talk and reintroduced herself, fully vulnerable • Why vulnerability is a bridge to deeper connection, not a weakness • How to give from a place of overflow instead of depletion • The real meaning of allyship—and why “ally” is not a label you give yourself • How her book Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally is literally two books in one, designed to be read in partnershipKey Themes & Takeaways: • Vulnerability as Strength: Sharing your story (cancer, mental health, alopecia, grief) can unlock connection, support, and healing—for you and others. • Self-Love & Service: Serving others from a full cup is part of self-love; serving from depletion leads to resentment and burnout. • Allyship as Action: Ally is a verb, not an identity. True allyship is a two-way partnership between the ally and the person they’re supporting. • Daily Check-In Practice: Ask yourself: • What’s one thing I did today that served others? • What’s one thing I did today that served myself?About the Book: Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally is a dual-sided book: one side for allies, one side for partners (those receiving allyship). The two sides reference each other and are designed to be used together—perfect for teams, leaders, and anyone committed to real inclusion. Learn more at: madelysolutions.com/allyship This episode is for you if you’re: • Navigating your own healing while still wanting to serve • Curious about real-world allyship (beyond buzzwords) • Ready to embrace vulnerability as a pathway to deeper self-love and community Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support (https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss) .

The Power of Service and Community with Jamie Lerner | Wisdom Wednesday

Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a Wisdom Wednesday conversation with coach Jamie Lerner. Explore how community service becomes an extension of self-love, why you must fill your cup before giving to others, and how authentic service transforms both giver and receiver. In This Episode: • Why self-love must come before service to others • The difference between giving from a full cup vs. an empty one • How to find service opportunities that align with your authentic self • Overcoming burnout and the "should" mentality in giving • Jamie's powerful story about her mother and self-connectionAbout Jamie Lerner: Jamie is a coach, connector, and lifelong advocate of living from alignment and purpose. She brings a beautiful perspective on how community service becomes an extension of self-love. Key Insights: Service Starts with Self-Love: "We need to be in a place where we are loving ourselves before we can authentically be in service to others. Once we're in that place, it never feels like service. It's just the natural extension of who we are. "The Full Cup Philosophy: • You can't give from an empty cup without resentment • Receivers can feel when giving comes from someone who isn't full enough • "Put your own mask on first"—but this is counterintuitive, especially for women • Self-service first—it's a lose-lose when you don'tJamie's Morning Practice: First thing in the morning, identify one thing you appreciate about yourself—not what someone else appreciates, but what YOU appreciate about you for you. When to Give:  "When you are in alignment and feeling good about yourself, opportunities present themselves. Then we say yes—there's no hesitation. It's just a yes. "The "Should" vs. "Could" Distinction: Don't give because you think you should—that doesn't feel good. Give because you could and want to.Jamie's Personal Journey:Raised in Service: Grew up in a home where service was the foundation. Home always filled with people from all over the world. Parents' motto: "If there's a will, there's a way." Raised to feel it's a privilege to serve others.Why She Volunteers: "It almost feels selfish on my part. I'm getting so much out of it. "Her Mother's Story: Jamie had no emotional connection with her mother her entire life, despite being extremely connected to herself. When her mother was transitioning in the ICU, Jamie finally felt all the love pour through. Then her mother passed.Jamie realized: Her mother couldn't connect with her because she wasn't connected with herself. This became her book's message—connection with ourselves is the basis for every other connection. Jamie's Superpower:  Born with inner knowing and self-connection. "I was impossible to be influenced. I only heard the sound of my own voice." That self-connection is now her superpower. Listener Q&A: Q: How can I give back when I'm still healing myself? Jamie: "When you're still healing, giving back is maybe not the priority. Use that energy for yourself. Actually, the healing IS the giving back." Q: What's something small I can do to make a difference? Jamie: "Just being present in anyone's space, you are making a difference. When you are present, that is such a present for others ."Powerful Truths: • "Know yourself, trust yourself, love yourself—you are your own greatest resource." • "Healing is not a destination—healing is an ongoing process." • "We need to get back to trusting ourselves, knowing ourselves, loving ourselves. That's where it all is. There's nothing outside of us."Nyomi's Insights: • Bob Proctor quote: "I'm being me for me—not for my wife or children or the world, but me for me." • Her therapist's advice: Don't fill your cup halfway—let it overflow so others receive your overflow • On today's world: "Tap into the God within you. Outside of you, it's going to be crazy. Find the strength within you."Perfect for listeners interested in: Service without burnout, self-connection, authentic alignment, overcoming the "should" mentality, self-love practices.

Find the strength within you."Perfect for listeners interested in: Service without burnout, self-connection, authentic alignment, overcoming the "should" mentality, self-love practices.

Finding Your Service Sweet Spot: Discovering How YOU Are Called to Give Back | Mindset Monday

Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a Mindset Monday exploring how to discover your unique calling to serve. Stop trying to serve in ways that drain you and find the intersection where your gifts meet the world's needs—your service sweet spot. In This Episode: • The 5 T's of service: Time, Talent, Treasure, Testimony, and Touch • Why service shouldn't feel like obligation or burden  • How to identify your natural gifts (even the ones you overlook)  • The difference between alignment and obligation  • Why small acts create big impacts • Practical exercises to discover your service sweet spot this week The 5 Forms of Service: 1. Time - Showing up, being present, volunteering hours 2.  Talent - Using your specific skills (podcasting, writing, design, teaching, organizing) 3.  Treasure - Financial support, donations, supporting small businesses 4.  Testimony - Sharing your story so others don't feel alone 5.  Touch - Physical presence, hugs, sitting in silence, energy healing You don't have to do all 5. Pay attention to which 1-2 make your spirit say "YES, that's me!" Three Questions to Identify Your Gifts: 1. What do you do effortlessly that others struggle with? Nyomi's example: Creating safe space for hard conversations, sitting with pain without fixing it. From childhood, people always stopped her for advice (called her "the Black Dear Abby"). 2. What activities make you lose track of time? Your gifts are connected to your joy. Nyomi's example: Deep conversations for hours feel like 20 minutes; working on podcast content and forgetting to eat 3. What do people constantly ask you for help with? These aren't random requests—they're mirrors reflecting your gifts. What are YOU the go-to person for? Alignment vs. Obligation: Critical Truth: If service constantly drains you, it's NOT your calling. • Service shouldn't feel like a burden • Healthy service flows from your gifts and energizes you • Saying no to some forms of service isn't selfish—it's stewardship of your giftsNyomi's Burnout Story: Said yes to everything early in her journey. Result: Burnt out, exhausted, resentful. Started asking before saying yes: "Is this aligned with my gifts? Does this energize me?" Her service became MORE powerful when she gave from alignment, not obligation. Example: The Fashion Show A friend asked Nyomi to help coordinate a fashion show. She knew it wasn't aligned but said yes out of obligation. Nothing worked. She got ill. Days later, her friend texted: "Spiritual guidance told me I'm not supposed to do this." God/the universe had to say no FOR her. The Power of Small Acts: You don't need a nonprofit, platform, or impressive-looking service. Sometimes the most powerful service is quiet and small: • Daily TikTok encouragement notes (5-10 minutes) • Kind word to a tired cashier • Texting "thinking about you today" • The way you raise your children (breaking generational curses) • Modeling self-love so others learn they can love themselves tooDon't diminish small acts done with great love. You don't have to change the whole world—just change someone's day. Practical Exercise for This Week: Step 1: List 5 things you're naturally good at (not trained skills—natural gifts) Step 2: Which bring you joy when you share them? Circle those—they're your clues. Step 3: Take ONE aligned action this week that flows from your gifts. Notice: Does it energize or deplete you? Affirmation: "My gifts are unique and needed. I don't have to serve like anyone else. I serve like me. I release the pressure to do it all and embrace the freedom to do what I am called to do. Small acts with great love create big change." Perfect for listeners interested in:  Finding your unique purpose, serving without burnout, identifying natural gifts, setting boundaries, turning pain into purpose, creating ripple effects.

The Power of Service & Community: Cultivating Connection Through Conscious Love with Christian de...

 Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a transformative Wisdom Wednesday conversation with Christian de la Huerta—spiritual teacher, breathwork facilitator, and author with 30 years of experience guiding people through deep personal transformation. Explore how personal growth ties into collective healing and why conscious love is the foundation of authentic connection. In This Episode:  • Understanding the ego mind: Why we get stuck in power struggles  • The difference between intensity and intimacy in relationships • How unconscious wounds from childhood sabotage our relationships • Breathwork as a tool for healing past trauma stored in the body • Why self-knowledge is the foundation of loving others • The power of surrender as an empowering (not disempowering) act  • Distinguishing worldly power from soulful power • Why women's empowerment is critical for global healing About Christian de la Huerta: For 30 years, Christian has been guiding people through deep personal transformation. His wisdom spans spirituality, breathwork, and emotional healing.  His latest book, Conscious Love: Transforming Our Relationship to Relationships, helps people break through patterns that block real, meaningful connection. Key Concepts Explored: The Ego Mind Explained: Christian offers a powerful visual: "If you put a baseball in the center of a stadium, that's the ego. Who we are is actually the freaking stadium." • The ego = sense of separate identity (the "I") • We've allowed this tiny part of who we are to think it's ALL who we are • The ego makes important life choices from a limited, fear-based perspective • Understanding the ego allows us to pause before reacting and choose our responseWhy Relationships Fail: Most people struggle with relationships because: • We approach them expecting someone to "complete us" or "make us happy" • We're running relationships from subconscious wounds we're not even aware of • We react to present situations based on old hurts and childhood conclusions • We suppress painful beliefs ("I'm not good enough") which then sabotage our relationships • We attract the wrong people or people who aren't available as a form of self-sabotageThe Honeymoon Phase vs. Real Love: Adapted from Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled: • Initial infatuation/lust = collapsed ego boundaries (feels amazing but temporary) • When the honeymoon ends (3-9 months), ego walls come back up • Real loving begins when the honeymoon ends • Love isn't the feeling—it's the act of placing ourselves outside our comfort zone for another's spiritual growth • We confuse intensity with intimacy, lust with loveBreathwork for Healing Trauma: Christian teaches breathwork that heals past trauma quickly and effectively: • Breathe in a circular connected way for 60-90 minutes • Bypasses the mind and goes directly to trauma stored in the body • Talk therapy helps us understand why we do things, but trauma lives in the body • Breathwork clears old wounds permanently—lives change after one session • Originally called "rebirthing" because people heal their birth trauma and resetThe Power of Surrender: From Christian's book Awakening the Soul of Power: • Surrender is NOT giving up, wimping out, or throwing in the towel • Surrender is an incredibly empowering and courageous act • It's about releasing control and allowing Spirit/God to lead • Misunderstanding surrender keeps us stuck in ego-driven choicesTwo Types of Power: • Worldly/Ego Power: Hierarchy, control, fear, force, domination—requires pushing others down • Soulful Power: Gandhi, Dr. King, nonviolence—dramatic change without violence • Gandhi brought the British Empire to its knees without shooting a gun or landing a punch • We reject power because we fear corruption, but in doing so, we give our power away • How many times have we said "yes" when inside it was a "no"?Why Women's Empowerment Matters: From Awakening the Soul of Power: • The single most important thing that needs to happen in the world • Not to idealize women or put them on a pedestal • Not to give women more mess to clean up • Because we've been running off balance between masculine and feminine energies for 6,000+ years • Patriarchy turned the feminine into "less than" and "weakness"—a twisted lie and instrument of controlNyomi's Personal Revelation: Nyomi shares her explant journey as an example of soulful power: • Had breast implants for 20+ years, causing illness • Initially wasn't going to share her journey publicly (ego/insecurity) • Realized: "How can you talk about self-love when you're moving from insecurity?" • "I used to say I'm 80% authentic—each boob was 10%. I needed to take them out to be 100% fully connected." • Watched documentary Explant and saw how authorities dismissed women's voices • Black box warnings exist on implants, but doctors aren't required to inf...

Mindset Monday: Why Giving Back is the Ultimate Act of Self-Love | November Giving Back Series

 Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a transformative Mindset Monday kicking off November's Giving Back series. Discover why the most powerful act of self-love isn't a bubble bath or spa day—it's serving others from a place of overflow and purpose.  In This Episode: • Why true self-love includes recognizing you're part of something bigger • Service as spiritual practice vs. martyrdom and self-sacrifice • The Full Cup Philosophy: You can't pour from an empty cup • How your healing journey prepares you to hold space for others  • The ripple effect: One person's healing inspires another's transformation • Turning your pain into purpose through authentic service  • Why self-care isn't selfish—it's preparation for service Key Concepts Explored: Service as Spiritual Practice Nyomi reframes what service means—not sacrifice or depletion, but alignment with purpose: • Every morning at her altar, she asks: "How can I be of service today?" • Service rooted in spiritual practice connects us to something greater than ourselves • When service becomes prayer, it stops feeling like obligation and starts feeling like devotion • True service isn't about what you're doing for someone—it's about who you're being through the actThe Full Cup Philosophy Self-care isn't selfish—it's preparation for service: • You can't pour from an empty cup (but there's deeper truth here) • Self-care = filling your cup so when it's time to pour out, you have something substantial to give • Pouring from an empty cup = service feels like sacrifice, leads to burnout and resentment • Pouring from overflow = service feels like joy, purpose, and extension of your abundance • Watching you fill your cup gives others permission to fill theirs tooThe Ripple Effect One woman's healing inspires another, creating waves of transformation: • Nyomi's story gave women permission to start their own healing journeys • Some started podcasts, wrote books, created healing businesses after hearing her truth • You don't always see the ripples you create, but trust they're there • Every time you choose healing over hiding, you create a ripple • Your healing isn't just for you—it's for your children, friends, and strangers who need your storyService That Honors Your Journey Every struggle was preparation: • Your pain wasn't given as a gift, but once you survive and heal, you have a choice • Keep that healing to yourself OR use it to light the way for others • When you choose service, you reclaim your pain and give it new meaning • You transform what happened TO you into something that happens FOR someone else • That's alchemy: turning wounds into wisdomNyomi's Personal Stories: The Divine Download Post-Surgery: After explant surgery, tender chest and heart, Nyomi felt an overwhelming knowing: "Your story is someone else's survival guide." She realized everything she'd been through—the pain, shame, unraveling, rebuilding—wasn't just for her. Her Daughter's Birthday Call: Nyomi's oldest daughter (turning 34) called in tears to say thank you: "I moved here 10 years ago at 24 with my baby in a suitcase, wondering how I'd make it without my mama. Now I feel so full. Thank you for talking into me and having hard conversations." Nyomi told her: "Now that you've been through your healing journey, your pain has to be purposeful. Share your story." The Journey from Adult Industry to Healing Advocate: • Initially resistant: "Who am I to help anyone? I'm still healing myself." • Realized: You don't have to be fully healed to help someone else • The most powerful medicine is being a few steps ahead and saying "Let me show you the way" • In sharing her story, she reclaimed it • In helping other women through explant journeys, she continues her own healingPowerful Truths Shared: • "Your story is someone else's survival guide" • "Self-care isn't selfish. It's preparation for service." • "Service isn't about what you're doing for someone. It's about who you're being through the act of service." • "My pain will not be wasted. My journey will not be meaningless. I will take what tried to break me and use it to help others break free." • "You don't have to have it all figured out to start serving. You just have to be willing to share where you are and what you've learned." • "Your healing is never just for you. You are here to serve and the world needs what only you can give."Three Action Steps for This Week: 1. Journal Prompt: "How has someone's service to me changed my life?" • Think about when someone showed up for you (teacher, friend, stranger's story) • How did that service impact you and change your trajectory? • What does that teach you about the power of your own service?2. Identify One Way to Serve: What's one concrete way you can be of service this week from your overflow (not depletion)? • Overcome financial struggle? Mentor someone on building th...
